Dul Johnson is one of the most popular and richest Filmmaker who was born on September 16, 1953 in Nigeria.
“The first five years of primary school (1961–65) were more hell than fun,” he said. Literally enslaved in the house of a stranger-relative, food, rest and recreation were as rare as diamond. The result was a terrible sickness that sent him back home in the South towards the end of 1965. School had to be suspended for one academic year.
When he returned to school in 1967, his father, who had earlier feared his being spoilt by a grandmother, sent Dul to his maternal grandmother at the foot of the mountains at Timwat. If a little spoiling could help him recover fully, so be it. A bit of the sweet life in Timwat is captured in his story “Living with Shadows” in his short story collection Shadows and Ashes.
